Not bad overall but yet again raw deal from the officials. Wimpy Sam T fouling and continually whispering in the refs ears did not help. Man of Steel - get a grip - play fair first and earn respect. What was on show today was a spoiled brat not getting his way.

and to cap it all, Tautai has been issued with a formal warning by the RFL for making dangerous contact with Tomkins - he must have dared to touch him

You mean from the type of tackle Wigan execute every single week, and have been doing so for going on four years?!

Is that the tackle where he went for the legs but followed through with the tackle? I thought this was allowed as we see it day in day out.

The only time it's not ok is when a player doesn't follow through the tackle. Or have the rules changed again?

Who knows especially after what happened last night. Gardner runs the ball out at speed and trips just before impact his head hits chest and forearm of tackler and tackler gets done for head high shot. How the hell the tackler could have avoided that I don't know.

Spot on. I really don't advocate violence in the game but if ever Tomkins gets a good smack on the nose it would be pay back for all the times he's used his arms and legs illegally.
A brilliant player who really likes to wind up opposing players but cannot take it himself.
